Chrysalis was following Cadence who was looking around town Canterlot, Chrysalis growled “Cadence we need to talk?!”

Cadence frowned “About what?”

Chrysalis frowned “You may know a lot about love but that doesn’t mean you should just hounded around Canterlot like this. We should have this discussion elsewhere, away from prying eyes.”

Cadence frowned “Fine but you will explain what you mean.”

In a flash of green light the two appeared in a guest room in Canterlot, Chrysalis sighed “You can’t just go around like that, trying to spread love without really knowing the pony that well. In fact when I first heard of your job it actually angered me quite a bit, it still does.”

Cadence grimaced “What do you mean? I help keep relationships going, it is my job as Princess of Love.”

Chrysalis grimaced “You end arguments that need to happen. In every relationship I had my partner and I argued about something at some point but we weathered the storm our relationship growing stronger because of it. Love needs to happen naturally, without outside intervention. All of my partners at some point found out what I was and accepted it because our bond was forged in fire.”

Cadence’s eyes widened “Really. I always through arguments were detrimental to a relationship, I often hid in my room as soon as Shining Armour got angry. I didn’t want to deal with his rage and I didn’t have the heart to use my magic on him. When I was upset with him I locked myself in my room using a powerful shield spell.”

Chrysalis sighed “That explains so much, including why he believed I was you. You never showed him the true you, what you were like when you were upset. It made it so easy, he didn’t know the real you and you will need to break that habit as he lives with you I assume.”

Cadence slumped “Some Princess of Love I am, I don’t even understand what I am doing in my own relationship not to mention how many you have messed with.”

Chrysalis frowned “It’s not your fault, I doubt Celestia is the best on advisor on relationships. I have been in them before, had many successful relationships and that give me experience that you lack. One day this will become easier on you trust me.”

Cadence looked up “Could you teach me more about this?”

Chrysalis smiled “Of course I can. Don’t’ worry about it Cadence, you will learn a lot about love from me but also from time. A few centuries from now and you will be a lot better at this.”

Meanwhile deep in the pit of Tartarus Chyrsa’s chitin was covered in scars as countless guards were lying around her unconscious. Several Earth Ponies were standing by her side, Chyrsa growled “We need to capture that Centaur before we return home, he will bring the world to it’s end if he isn’t stopped.”

Several demonic looking guards rushed towards them through the ghastly dark halls, Chyrsa tore one in half the Earth Ponies fighting behind her as more guards came from behind. Chrysa began drawing on energy from around her, the demonic energies of Tartarus twisting her form, her mouth grew a pair of massive fangs in front of her mouth as long claws shot out from the front. “

She ripped the beings in front of her apart with her mighty fangs. The sound of blood and screams echoed throughout the demonic halls, a huge skeletal equine figure with red glowing eyes snarled “I am Death, guardian of this prison! You have been brought euchre for your sins.”

Chyrsa let out a unholy roar “We are here because some unicorns have abused their power. They have been brought to their knees, now it’s our time to return. To bring the ancient powers of the Earth back into the world.” The Prison of Tartarus began to shake as the two beings clashed.

Death growled “Why should I let you go!”

Chyrsa frowned “Because I intend to bring Tirek back, you know the threat he poses and you are stuck here. The ponies don’t know about him yet, we need him captured while he’s weak.”

Death nodded “Very well I’ll let you all go. Tirek is greater threat, bring him back here and I will make sure he doesn't escape this time. I will place him in the magic sealed chamber’s here in Tartarus proper instead of that flimsy cell he was placed in last time.”

Chyrsa bowed “You have my word Lord Death.” Death nodded, as soon as the Earth Ponies left Tartarus with that promise made Chyrsa’s eyes glowed with magical power. It wasn’t had to track down the wayward Centaur, with the magic taken form Tartarus it was easy to find him. All inmates were marked a dark yellow and his glowed quite brightly.

Chyrsa teleported to his location, the lean red centaur’s eyes widened as the ferocious demon changeling pony hybrid snatched him up “You have a date with Death, you for the freedom of the Earth. You will never leave Tartarus again.”

Chyrsa teleported back to Tartarus, Death would have blinked if he had eyes “You work quick! I’ll take him right away.” As Chrysa and the free Earth Ponies left for Canterlot Death carried the centaur deep into Tartarus and thrown him into the deepest magical cell he had that had a completely solid stone door “You, Magic Thief will never leave. You are a monster through and through. Now you will no longer torment the races of this world, farewell.”
